Hey it`s ALL MY FAULT !!!
Now you all have to embarrass yourself !!! jejeje
Well, I have a good ( really bad ) one;
Between 1993-98, I worked on Marine electronics, one day, I was installing a brand new autopilot on a brand new 50 or so footer gorgeous sailboat, while anchored on the Bay, so the owner was there with me. He asked me to install the AP computer on a wall inside one of the sleeping quarters. I spent about one hour measuring and looking SOooo carefully so I could find a good place to bolt the computer to the wall, and after extensive measuring, found a "good" place and drilled the wall with a 1/4' bit, first hole luckily, and when I pulled the bit out, guess what I saw daylight, so I knew I had drilled to the outside, and when I looked the second time through the hole, I saw an eye, looking at me from the other side, it was the owners eye. The hole ended up 4" more aft than I had measured, so I missed the place I wanted. The owner got so MAD !!!! that asked me to just abandon ship ASAP, and he never ever wanted to talk to me anymore, he never ever did. I ended up contracting a professional fiberglass repair guy who plugged the hole and filled with an exact blend of gell coat. The hole, the repairman said, "disapeared", but you know with time, the color probably changed at that spot, reminding the owner of MY STUPIDITY !!!!
I still feel very bad to this day.
